Hi everyone. One week ago I got a 15 wk old female glider. I am sooo excited and I love her so much! But, being new to gliders, I've looked to the internet for tips. One piece of advice I saw a lot of is never to get just one. So I felt awful, I've been stay up all night talking to Zoey, she has a safe wheel, toys, hammocks, etc. I haven't put my hand in her cage, but have given her fruit and veg thru the bars and put my scent on lots of stuff in there.
Second mistake I think I made is putting a winter sock in there, I put it on the inside of a plastic hamster igloo, and she chose that as her nest. I've tried to get her out to put her in a bonding bag unsuccessfully, she crabbed the whole time. Now I've been told to get rid of the sock, since I have many other options for a nest, including the pouch that was in the box that we drove her home in. They told me she will always go to the sock bc it's the darkest place, and it'll hinder bonding. Please HELP! Any advice appreciated. Is a single glider ok when I'm there 24/7? Get rid of the sock/place she chose to sleep????
HELP!

Hello all-
I am a returning member to Glider Central and I am heartbroken to see "latest postings" in various categories with dates as far back as 2018. I hope everyone is well and still actively enjoying life with our beloved sugar gliders. I completely know and understand that 'life happens', it did to me, but thankfully all is well now and I'm looking forward to rejoining the wonderful family here on Glider Central.

11/08/22 07:52 PM Looking for a buddy for my boy
Hi All,

It has been a few years since I have been on here. I created my account 13 years ago when I got my first glider Princess Juliet. As I was a new glider mom, I wanted as much information to provide the best care for my new baby. I then added a friend a few months later, Gizmo. I had these to wonderful girls for 12 years and I spoiled and loved them with all my heart. They were well traveled, as I took them on many a road trip visiting several states in the US. I lost them both last year to old age within a couple of months apart. It still breaks my heart thinking about it. Five years ago a friend of mine worked with a lady that had a 2 year old little girl that they no longer had time for, so I adopted the sweet Zelda or Ms Bitty (which is what I mostly called her). After Juliet and Gizmo passed I found a companion for Ms Bitty, so she would not be lonely after the loss of her sisters. Ms Bitty passed unexpectedly Saturday night. I am not sure what happened, just that I found her in the bottom of the cage. I looked her over and could not determine what could have happened. She is now buried with her sisters in my rose garden. I now have a broken heart and a dilemma. My poor Mr. Winston is all alone and I cannot find anyone locally (St. Louis, Missouri) that breeds or has a glider that needs to be rehomed. I checked the links on the page and the breeders do not seem to be active anymore. I am leery of being scammed, does anyone on here know anyone in my area I could contact?

04/12/22 04:48 AM New Suggie Mama!
Hi all!

I am a new sugar glider mama as of about a month and a half ago! I don't have any pressing questions or concerns, I just wanted to drop in here and say hi!

These little babies have absolutely stolen my heart and our bonding is going very well! If there are any tips/tricks that you wish you knew before getting your babies, what would it be?

Hello, everyone 😄 I am a new glider owner with some questions any help would be much much appreciated 😊

My question is about bedding....

I have a cage that does not have a drop pan and since the people I bought the gliders from used pine pellets that is what I used. They have been using pine pellets for 3 months now and no problems. They're doing absolutely great 👍 (in direct contact with pine pellets. Cage doesn't have a drop pan)

I however found the pine pellets to be messy so I was going to swap them over to the bedding we use for our guniea pigs and bunnies. Kaytee Clean and Cozy Lavender Scented Bedding.

However upon more research I found out that scented bedding may not be the best since they are scent based pets and have sensitive respiratory systems. I could always buy unscented though if that was the only issue.

I also read posts about them not needing to be in direct contact with the bedding because they may eat a piece and it could cause blockages. I never had that issue with my other pets but I am not sure about gliders if they would try and eat it or not.

I do not own a cage with a drop pan so my question is should I stick with the pine pellets or could I introduced then to carefresh or kaytee bedding? Also should it be unscented or could it be scented? They use real lavender buds so it seems to be the healthiest and safest scented bedding out there in my opinion.

Any advice on what to use for bedding in a glider cage would be great and much appreciated (they'll have direct contact with it so it would need to be 100% safe for them)💕

Hi I'm Peanuts. I'm from Lumberton,nj. I've been thinking about getting a sugar glider for awhile now. But I have a cat I won't part with. So I'm at a stand still right now.
